Start by pulsing the gluten-free oats in a blender or food processor until they resemble a coarse flour-like consistency.
In a mixing bowl, combine the processed oats, rice flour, baking powder, and salt. Stir until well incorporated.
In a separate medium bowl, whisk together the milk, egg, vanilla extract, melted unsalted butter, and maple syrup until smooth.
Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, stirring continuously until a thick batter forms. Ensure there are no lumps.
Heat a non-stick frying pan over medium heat and lightly grease it with vegetable oil.
Using a tablespoon, drop small mounds of batter onto the hot pan, spacing them out to avoid sticking together.
Cook each scone for 2-3 minutes until bubbles form on the surface and the edges appear set. Flip the scones and continue cooking for an additional 2-3 minutes until golden brown.
Transfer the cooked scones to a plate lined with a paper towel to drain any excess oil.
Repeat the process with the remaining batter, serving immediately once all scones are cooked. Enjoy with your favorite toppings!
